Great restaurant! Fish was caught that day and the preparation was fantastic. Staff was very friendly and helpful. My wife is allergic to gluten and they took it very seriously. Can’t wait to go back.
My best friend and I were heading out on a cruise out of the Galveston port and wanted to have seafood in town the night before. She has Celiac's disease so we looked around for gluten free food and found BLVD Seafood.
They were absolutely fantastic!! Everything we ate was excellent. It was all flavorful and they had really good options for her that was gluten free. Very often she has little to no good options, but BLVD had plenty, and it was all fantastic. The shrimp scampi was fantastic - to the point where when I said I was going to leave a good review she told me to make sure to mention it. It wasn't like any shrimp scampi I've seen other places, but it was AMAZING.
If we ever sail out of Galveston again, we will be eating here again.
Mario’s Seawall has a great atmosphere and delicious food, but unfortunately, my experience as a celiac girlie wasn’t the best. While they do offer gluten-free options, I ended up getting glutened, which was really disappointing. The flavors were amazing, and I wish I could confidently return, but if you have celiac or a severe gluten intolerance, I’d recommend being extra cautious and double-checking with the staff.

I ordered the shrimp burger and it was fabulous. My sister who is celiac and allergic to fish was with me. She ordered a simple burger patty, but as they make sure the grill was clean. They must’ve done just that because she enjoyed every bite and had no flareups. Really enjoyed this restaurant and we’ll go back to try something new next time.
The gluten free pizza here was amazing!!
I've been to a different Russo's and this place just did it better.
Also got a salad and a (regular) pizza by the slice that we asked to have sliced in half.
It has 3 stars because my kids loved it they loved their food and had a great time. The website stated lots of gluten-free options but there was one option and it was sub par at best could only eat half
This pizza was just the right amounts of tasty, cheesy, and slightly greasy! Gluten free crust is available and their alfredo sauce claims to be gluten free since they use corn starch as a thickener. They were open late and everyone was very friendly!
Super cute atmosphere, a few allergies in the party and chef alberto came out to the table to help and made the BEST food-steak was so good and the redfish tacos were out of this world!!!!!!!!! I'm celiac and it was totally safe for gluten free :) also the cheddar grits were fab
Ohhh my shrimp taco haven!!! And they have a gluten free menue for this celiac girl. Thank you sooo much!! Omgoodness was amazing and sooo fresh.. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🥰🌊⛱️
Super friendly, cute hole in the wall place. If you love Greek food, this is the place! Adam was our server, he was extremely accommodating and attentive. He recommended mostly what we got 😅
This place is great for family’s! Calamari and crab cakes were yummy! Lamb chops were delicious, kids loved the pizzas, gyro platter and gyro pita was perfect👌🏼 platter had SO much food on it. The rice was a fav.
The meat lover pizza was perfectly made with gyro, mozzarella, feta, marinara, tomato, red onions 🤤
He talked us into the chocolate cake and OMGGGGGG 🤌🏼💋
Definitely check it out if your into little locally owned places! Gluten free options too!
Gaidos is a standard in Galveston and it's clear why! The staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. They assisted with any questions I had regarding gluten free items on the menu and were able to make great recommendations. Our appetizer and dessert were amazing, I'm still dreaming about the soup of the day made by the chef! I was a bit disappointed for my entree as the sides and the meat used the same seasoning so the dish lacked depth, but everything else was amazing. The gift shop inside is also very cute.
The food,service and prices were good. Our, server Micah was wonderful. Very caring and accommodating to all our meal needs. I'm Gluten free, my meal came gluten free.
Loved the nice visit we had with Micah.
Truly, he cares about who he serves. Thank you Micah!
A small restaurant with great food! Everyone was friendly and it felt like eating at a friend's house with the small location and a rotation of people greeting each other. They had plenty of gluten free options and were happy to make any accommodations. The food was amazing!
A cozy restaurant for cozy food! They had all gluten free options marked on their menu. I ordered the catfish tacos and they hit just the spot! I definitely recommend this place for a reasonably priced, tasty meal.
Was very good food. Has a Gluten free pasta option and sauce, for me. Lasagna was beautiful for my husband. Atmosphere was wonderful. Service, clean and all great
Easy to book, initial service great. Asked about a gluten free bread option for a patty melt and it all started to fail from that point. Initial order ok, some alcohol, an appetiser for 2, and patty melts (one regular, one with gluten free bread). Patty melts never arrived after an hour and we asked and they re checked our initial order. Blamed the kitchen for being confused, but I think they forgot to put the orders through. They arrived 5 mins later. No swiss cheese, looking overdone. Taken away to sort and arrived later. Other cheese mix was used, non-gluten free patty melt meal had burnt patty and burnt bread and some odd cheese mix that had set like rubber. Complained again but past feeling hungry. Given them their due, we only paid for alcohol in the end. However, it was the worst meal I can recall in many years. Warning: make sure they fully understand what’s required for gluten free as you order. We won’t be visiting again…
I’ve now altered my review (overall star rating) based on a discussion I’ve since had with the Gen Mgr, and I believe it was a one off issue, and he has already used it as the basis for training and I thank him for offering credit and moreso for reaching out to me.
Angel did an incredible job of answering all of my gluten allergy questions. He ensured that I felt safe with my meal and the service was wonderful! We truly enjoyed our experience and will be going back! There is no gluten free menu but most items are already gluten free. The chips are not gluten free but that was fine by me!
Went here for valentines, hands down the BEST Italian food I have had in the states. Amazing atmosphere and experience. Must try their risotto and their signature Bellini! Lots of gluten friendly options too!
No dine in at this location. We had two with celiac disease, they said could not make anything even though listed. They sent us to another location so we went twenty more min to go to their original location and they only had cauliflower crust though it was advertised that they had that and gluten free. Please don’t advertise if you can’t offer the service.

Great for beach side casual food and drinks. Staff very attentive and helpful. Made my gluten-free lunch enjoyable and were careful about cross contamination.
We are proud and frequent Landry’s members. Waited an hour for our food! Couldn’t find our waiter. Got water but no bread! Service at our table was sooo slow! Other waiters were working hard. I had to ask one to find our waiter. My husband ordered white rice off of the gluten free menu. Came out crunchy, not fully cooked. Put fried onion rings on my grandson’s gluten free taco plate. No gf bread at any Landry’s except Saltgrass…Why????? So very disappointed!
Incredible service, top-notch fresh seafood & attentive staff. Eric seated our party of NINETEEN without a reservation or any available support runners and gave us the best service we've had on the island this weekend. Knowledgeable of Gluten Free options and was very easy to work with. Worth every penny, and better fish quality than other place for the price.
This is the best lunch spot in Galveston. The fish is fresh and delicious, and the counter is manned by extremely kind and talented folks who love what they do. Their menu is celiac and gluten-free friendly, so just ask what is available that day!! Just be sure to get there promptly at open because they WILL sell out! Highlights include: corn cup, Baja taco, Korean taco, and Empire taco!!
The food is amazing! Lots of gluten free options. I got the chicken pablano and it makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Mihaela was really helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.
There is a non handicap dark black car that ALWAYS parks in the one handicap spot next to the ramp where you can't even access it. Nobody has done anything about it for months, so assuming it is a worker. Makes it near impossible to get my wheelchair to the Papa John's. It's literally the only complaint I have about this place.
***There gluten free pizza is the best one yet and super safe as long as you click the clean cut option.
Loved this place, beautiful atmosphere and friendly staff. They had lots of gluten free options and the staff sang Happy Birthday to my husband. Great raspberry mojito and cocktails..
Spike is an amazing owner. The tamarind margarita is the best margarita I have ever had.
He was also very accommodating to a gluten free diet. Will definitely be the spot to come when we come to Galveston.
Great meal! The food was pretty standard Mexican restaurant fare, but better than most. Shout out to our waiter, Francisco G, who was very attentive to my wife's special dietary needs( gluten allergy).
This is a great spot to cool off and have a great meal. Chef Eric is one of Galveston' best! The burgers are excellent, and they gladly accommodate with gluten free options. Pricey? Yup. Spend the money. You only live once.
I have celiac disease and am always concerned with cross contamination and being exposed to gluten. I informed our waiter of this. The chef actually came out and accommodated my dietary needs and restrictions. The whole restaurant staff was friendly and understood my concerns. Best sashimi I’ve ever had in my life! Thank you for taking the time to care.
I liked the atmosphere of being at someone's house, especially with the relaxed way of ordering and sitting yourself, but the food was just okay. There were not very many gluten free options.
Delicious pho and bun! Tasted fresh and great. The waiters were helpful and nice. The restaurant itself is fine, not super nice, but still great food which is the main point. They were helpful with gluten free with lots of questions and promptings. All in all, would definitely recommend as your pho spot in Galveston!
This is an authentic Mexican Restaurant. The wait time is about 5 minutes. The tables are nicely set. They have high chairs and can also accommodate wheelchairs. The waiters are knowledgeable and can answer questions about the food like gluten free etc. It is an inexpensive restaurant. Street parking is free.
Fantastic Mexican food in an establishment that has been a long-time favorite of Galveston natives. HUGE portions of delicious Mexican classics. We had two gluten-free diners who had no trouble with the chicken enchiladas with green tomatillo sauce and rice and beans. Cheese enchiladas were delicious too. Queso and corn tortillas are gluten free. For GF, avoid the chips that are fried in oil and the chili gravy. otherwise you are good to go! Our daddy has the special dinner and ate every bit!! One of everything for those who cannot decide on one thing. Camarones are good, although the tomato sauce they are in has a bit too much sugar. Great place to go. Dine early because there is always a line.
The food was delicious! They were moderately helpful about gluten free options. I had blackened salmon with a baked potato and green beans and it was great. The high chair was sticky and had the straps cut off, so our baby was continually trying to climb out of her chair. House wine was good and $1 off for happy hour.
Definitely recommend coming here during your stay in Galveston. Cute coastal diner setting with very accommodating staff and great food. They were also able to make gluten free dishes!
